Since I am unemployeed officially, I have been looking for some work to do in my shop....

My neighbor intoroduced me to a frind of his that wants some work done on his 56 chev...

Clean up the inner fenders, remove the stamped mounting bosses for the voltage regulator and horn relay,, etc...

Here is a couple of pics of what I have done so far on one of the inner fenders......

I will post some before pics later for those who do not know what a 56 inner fender looks like .....

This was all done with a hammer and a dolly, and a shrinking disk...

Lots of cold shrinking, planishing, and some disk shrinking.....

Still needs some e-wheeling, and more dolly work before it's done...

That's a great feeling. Charge the guy a dollar more than what it's worth. Then put it in a frame. I've got the first buck I took in framed. It's all the ones since then that I miss.

I've gotten burned too many times on "you give me what I want now,and I'll blow smoke up your skirt later" deals.
